Do we want to negotiate a group rate at the same hotel?

Yes...I would book a room at a hotel if we did this.

I'm not as far along (in getting ready) as I hoped to be by now :roll: And I've realized that I need to take everything out of my car in order to fit all the tailgate stuff. And that is not a small task!

I guess there's always tommorrow. I'm determined to be in the jus' now frame of mind by Sunday though. :D

I think I am going to do jeans, flip flops and my tropical shirt then bring a fleece that i can put under my tropical shirt later. We will be warm in the sunshine...and with the alcohol in our system!! :) Once the sun goes down.....a little different story!! :wench:

HEY! I am going to this show after all! "The Boss" gave me permission to drive down solo w/o her ...... she's a jewel, that's one of the reasons I married her.

So I have an extra pavilion ticket, or two extra if I dump those and just grab a lawn seat for myself. Plus I have a premier parking pass.

Guess I'd better read through the 40+ pages of this thread now and figure out what is going on. Maybe someone can reply and give me a summary ..... are people meeting somewhere to caravan into the parking lot?

Hmmmm. Now to locate a hotel room.

Yea!!! I am glad you are coming!! I am not sure there is a set plan. Tarheel Tail Gator is sending out a cell phone list--the final one tomorrow--so pm him your info right quick so you can get on that list. I think the majority of us have the premier parking and plan on meeting up together in that lot. We did find out that that lot will open up at noon, but they are still saying the other lots won't open up until 3.

who's in VIP?

Post by Luv Da Keys »

Hi Happy Campers-still being a newbie to this BN thing, I apologize for the dumb question. How many of you are tailgating in VIP? I think I saw a couple of posts that led me to believe there are at least a couple of you out there. I'll be part of a group of six, one of which has a broken ankle so it could get interesting for her. I'll be looking around for you. Two days and counting.

Rock on.
If there is a heaven for me, I hope it has a beach attached to it.

Hey all. I have a premier parking pass that I won't be using. Don't know the logistics of getting it to anyone. PM me if you are interested and can figure a way to get it tomorrow evening. I won't have time the day of the show to meet anyone.
